Answer:

pH of resulting solution = 7.98

Explanation:

The balanced equation  

HA + NaOH - Na+ + A- + H2O

Number of moles of A = Number of moles of HA  = Number of moles of NaOH

= 35.8/1000 * 0.020 = 0.000716 mol

Initial concentration of A = 0.000716/0.0608 = 0.01178 M

pKb = 14 – pKa = 14 -3.9 = 10.1

Kb = 10^{-Kb} = 10^{-10.1} = 7.943 * 10^-11

Kb = [HA][OH-]/[A-]

Kb = a^2/(0.01178 -a) = 7.943 * 10^-11

a^2 + 7.943 * 10^-11 a – 9.357 * 10^-13 = 0

a = 9.673 * 10^-7

OH- = a = 9.673 * 10^-7 M

pOH = -log [OH-] = -log (9.673 * 10^-7) = 6.02

pH = 14-6.02 = 7.98

Use the formation reactions below such that when added together, they match the balanced equation for the combustion of methane.
muminat

Answer:

ΔH of the reaction is -802.3kJ.

Explanation:

Using Hess's law, you can know ΔH of reaction by the sum of ΔH's of half-reactions.

Using the reactions:

<em>(1) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ 2H₂(g) → CH₄(g) ΔH₁ = −74.80kJ

<em>(2) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH₂ = −393.5k J

<em>(3) </em>H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH₃ = −241.80kJ

The sum of (2) - (1) produce:

CH₄(g) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂(g) ΔH' = -393.5kJ - (-74.80kJ) = -318.7kJ

And the sum of this reaction with 2×(3) produce:

CH₄(g) + 2 O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g) And ΔH = -318.7kJ + 2×(-241.80kJ) =

<em>-802.3kJ</em>

How does temperature, pressure, and density impact the core of the Earth?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

temperatures within the outer core range from 7,200 to 9,000 F. Pressure also increases in the outer core due in part to the weight of the crust and mantle above.The Earth's magnetic field is generated by the outer core.
